About Yvette M.
4.8
(5)
I have been playing guitar since I was 12 years old, growing up on progressive and blues rock. I cut my teeth on Stairway to Heaven, Dust in the Wind and Roundabout. I have taught music to all ages for over 25 years. I've owned a private teaching studio and am also a licensed public school music teacher. I hold a Bachelors in Music Performance (classical guitar as my primary instrument and piano as my second instrument) a Masters in Music Education, and currently working on a second Bachelors from the Berklee Conservatory of Music. I have played live in bands, solos and duos.
*** Lesson Details ***
My lessons are tailored to the goals of the student whether they want to learn how to read music and music theory from the ground up, or just learn to play their favorite folk songs. Whatever road a student is interested in taking, I do my best to help them build solid technique and understand the basics. I also make it a point to make my lessons as fun and enjoyable as possible.
